Banded dragonflies have black and yellow striped bodies and bright-green eyes. They are large and can fly quite fast. They have strong jaws, so it might be painful if you're bitten. Their larval stage lasts two to four years, where they live near water, feeding on tadpoles and small fish.

The Banded Dragonfly can be found flying throughout any portion of your Town during the specified hours and may land on random signs or flowers as well. Despite being found during the summer it does not appear on the island, but it can be found during some tours.
